Redes Multinível e Multidimensional em prol do Objetivo de Desenvolvimento Sustentável 9 (ODS 9) da Agenda 2030/ONU – Indústria, Inovação e Infraestrutura

Abstract

The 2030 Agenda encourages intensive global engagement in support of the implementation of its Sustainable Development Goals – SDGs. Thus, there is a stimulus for the formation of partnerships, and networks formed are inevitably multilevel and multidimensional structures. This is valid for the 2030 Agenda as a whole and for specific objectives, such as SDG 9 focused on Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. In this sense, this article aims to identify the profile of the networks formed to achieve SDG 9. To this end, the multilevel and multidimensional model (MLMD) proposed by Park and Lim (2018) was considered. Data collection was made on the SDG Partnerships Platform. The classification of actors and generation of information for analysis were performed manually. The results point to a large dispersion of actors among in diverse levels and dimensions, involving both governmental and non-governmental actors at different hierarchical levels. The largest number of actors identified are non-governmental actors, with emphasis on the private sector. However, despite their recognized potential, transnational companies appear with a timid participation in projects linked to SDG 9. However, the achieving the Goals is not a responsibility of one type of actor. It is necessary to streamline projects and the ecosystem of partnerships for the implementation of this SDG, which may even be based on the model of the triple helix (company, government and universities), on the quadruple helix (which includes society in the triple helix) or even the inclusion of environmental variable (quintuple helix).
